Ann DeBusk Legacy Circle

Leave a legacy. Make an impact.

A GIFT IN YOUR WILL or a Legacy Gift or Bequest is a way to remember and consider that which you valued in your lifetime of living, learning, work, and growth.

Naming American Leadership Forum Silicon Valley (ALF Silicon Valley) in your estate plans ensures your support for the success of the Bay Area. Your gift supports scholarships, programming, and expansion.

You can direct your bequest unrestricted to support various efforts, or you can choose to support specific work of ALF Silicon Valley, such as Scholarships or Affinity Groups. Your assets remain in your control during your lifetime, and gifts through your will can be modified if necessary.

A gift in your will costs nothing now, and you retain control and use of your assets during your lifetime. However, a gift in your will guarantees that you will leave a legacy.

Already included us in your estate plans? Let us know!

We would like to thank you and welcome you to the Ann DeBusk Legacy Circle. By informing us, you can help ensure that we will fulfill your gift exactly as you intend. Please contact ALF Silicon Valley Development Manager, Sumaiya Moosa, at 669-600-1507.
